My IRL name is Matt Maldre. Here are the options for words that start with the letter M:

• Machine
• Madfast
• Marine
• Master
• Matador
• Mega
• Miss
• Mister
• Mojo
• Monster
• Mustang
• Mutant

Matador sounds like Matt.
Madfast sounds like Maldre.

So my name is Matador Madfast. Doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, but it’s unique.

When picking names that sound like your real-life name, here’s some tips:

1. Start with same letter. There will usually be 4-8 options with the Hot Wheels name.
2. Narrow your options down some more by looking at the second letter of your name.
3. Or find the most letters similar to your real-life name.
4. Maybe you could find the length of word most similar to your real-life name.

I thought about programming a form where you can enter your real-life name, and then it will give you the closest Hot Wheels name. Maybe some day. For now, just look at the list of words.
